Step-by-Step Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together 1 cup of double cream and 1/3 cup of icing sugar using an electric mixer on medium speed until soft peaks form, about 3-4 minutes. Gently beat in 8 oz of mascarpone and 1/2 cup of pistachio cream until completely incorporated and smooth.
- Prepare 1 cup of strong espresso coffee and allow it to cool slightly. Quickly dip each savoiardi sponge finger into the coffee for no more than 2 seconds, layering them evenly at the bottom of a medium-sized serving dish.
- Spread about half of the pistachio cream mixture generously over the top of the ladyfingers. Repeat the dipping and layering process with the remaining ladyfingers and pistachio cream mixture.
- Pipe additional pistachio cream on the top layer and sprinkle with chopped pistachios. Cover and refrigerate for at least 6 hours, preferably overnight.
- Remove from the refrigerator and let sit at room temperature for about 20 minutes before slicing and serving.
